hamas and israel going on. it seemed mahmoud abbas becoming an influential figure here in the palestinian territories. a lot of people here also in the west bank that said hamas was essentially the one that stands up to israel. mahmoud abbas was seen as very weak. if you look at the several few days before this u.n. bid in the run up to all this, his poll numbers have really increased. he has gotten a lot more popular here in the palestinian territory. so, certainly, in many ways, this speech that he gave before that vote was a make or break moment for mahmoud abbas. it seems as though he carried some momentum from that. it's unclear, however, wolf, how long that is going to last. because tomorrow people are going to wake up and they're going to notice not much is going to change. the actual status of the palestinian territories really hasn't changed very much on the ground. that is something that israel has been saying, as well. they say in the end, this is a piece of paper. however, this is by no means that s

victims of israel. but you have to remember that all of this is through a very foggy lens and she got a lot of blow back on twitter for that. >> brian: that's watching too much al-jazeera and not enough fox news. if 300 rockets are sent in your direction annually for no apparent reason except you don't like israelis or the jewish people, i think sooner or later, you're going to get a response. bernie goldberg was on bill o'reilly last night and talked about the way this entire conflict is being portrayed. >> before israel's counter offensive last week, hamas lobbed between 750 and 800 missiles into civilian places in israel. that's a lot of missiles, 800 in one calendar year, just this year, up to 800 missiles. but that was never a big news story in the united states. i'm not saying they never covered it. but it was never a big running news story. it only became a story when israel launched this major counter offensive. now, why is this? i think it's because there is a fascination on the part of liberal
